Train Chartering and BigAir have teamed up to present intermodal charters based on BigAir's novel concept of destination clusters, in which travel becomes a themed or itinerary-based journey.

BigAir and Train Chartering are introducing their partnership at the Luxury Travel Fair London, illustrated by reference to an intermodal journey incorporating the historical Silk Route, perhaps the earliest example of a destination cluster.

BigAir is a London based private jet airline and charter firm. Working on an international basis, BigAir provides an efficient, secure, and discreet travel service for clients seeking to maximize their effective time, whatever their pursuits.

Train Chartering has access to a stable of luxury and first class trains, which also includes Private Rail Cars and the Luxury Train Club. Transport Charter has for some time offered multi-modal passenger charter options for when a train is not appropriate.

Simon Pielow of Train Chartering is enthusiastic, "We have been innovators in chartered rail travel for over 10 years, presenting our clients with the best way to travel on earth; now, in partnership with BigAir, the sky's no limit."

Augusto Viansson Ponte of BigAir is a strong believer of this new concept, "We are delighted to announce the partnership with Train Chartering: the opportunity to offer a multi-modal charter option is a great addition to the answers that we want to propose to our clients".

The Train Chartering group is expert in the provision of luxury transport options, primarily in the UK, Europe or the USA; the client chooses hotels and other travel elements. This allows the focus to be on the crucial and often under-planned supply of transportation, preferably exclusively by rail or by other means.
